  1. It’s Ieva Skuja who appears in the Marc Jacobs ads. She’s represented by the Karin Models agency in New York. Quite a few Latvian models can be seen on theones2watch.com, including women such as Agneta Januševica and Ilze Ciematniece, as well as men with names such as Aigvars, Ģirts and Mārtiņš.

  2. I’ve noticed a model named “Ieva” in Marc Jacobs ads in various fashion magazines lately. Anyone know who she is? (She’s quite pale and has red hair).
